Over Under 2/2 – Dallas Cowboys/Chicago Bears
Amari Cooper has struggled on the road throughout the 2019 season. He’s seeing only 5.3 targets per game away from home, as opposed to 10.0 targets per game in Dallas. The has turned his limited targets into 2.8 receptions for only 35.5 yards per game. He failed to record a catch in his last road game, while posting 71+ receiving yards in only 1 of his 6 road games this season. Cooper gets a tough matchup against the Chicago Bears, who are allowing only 222.2 passing yards per game. With limited opportunities, Cooper could struggle in Chicago tonight.
David Montgomery has flashed at times as a rookie. He has been far from consistent, though. Overall, he’s averaging only 49.5 yards on 14.3 carries per game. Montgomery has seen 17 or fewer carries in each of his last 4 games, although he has topped 59 yards twice over that span. With that being said, he gets a tough matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. They are allowing 106.4 rushing yards per game in 2019. They have given up only 4.1 rushing yards per carry, though. This game is likely to turn into a defensive battle, and Montgomery could continue to see limited carries if he doesn’t find early success. There are too many variables working against Montgomery to trust the inconsistent rookie.
Play 1 unit on Amari Cooper UNDER 70.5 receiving yards and David Montgomery UNDER 58.5 rushing yards to win 3 units (3x)
